It's >exactly what I was looking for (Thanks Tina). You're welcome, Andrew. Astia, to me, gives the best skin tones of any film (and, therefore, the best true to life colors!) I've tried them all. It is not over-saturated like the Velvia's or Provia's. The Kodak E-6's are too cool for me. For people, I'm still ordering Astia. I'll take 100 rolls to Central America this summer, but I still hope to work mainly in B&W! Tina Tina Manley, ASMP http://www.tinamanley.com
